I didn't, but thanks to your help I do now:
# rpm -qa | grep telnet
ktelnet-0.61-2mdk
telnet-0.12-10mdk
telnet-server-0.12-10mdk
However, I'm still getting the same thing:
# telnet my_box_name
Trying xxx.xx.xx.xxx...
Connected to my_box_name.
Escape character is '^]'.
telnetd: All network ports in use.
So, I'm still confused.
Thanks,
Chad

Do you have the telnet server??? I'd make sure you have
both the telnet client and the telnet server.
